Hooray well done Vjay love the title!
curly so sorry ew flew in :( but you will so be in the next batch with 4ever, moon and monkey... speaking of monkey we miss you...come fill us in on your treatments and stuff.
vjay fab that all is as it should be coil-wise, fx everything else comes up as nothing
qa at missing ds... I'd so be like that too. I feel so sorry for my dh sometimes not seeing ds enough. Today he has an after-work meeting so won't see him at all tonight so he was hanging around not wanting to leave for work this morning and getting 'one last cuddle' from ds about 3 times cute. So glad your ds is enjoying himself though.
blue hope you're feeling a bit better lovely. Buying some Boden??
barbie great news re tummy...you still wired up?? I want to know the baking soda test too!
gracie yuk to still vomiting :( and now asthma too 
the things we go through for these precious los eh. Hope you're ok and dd is being an angel for you!
MLS Did you ever get the third star put on to your gorgeous tattoo? (sorry hope that's not too upsetting a question :(, just me being nosy.)
Well the lovely nausea/hunger has kicked in here...resisted making myself cheesy pasta just now even though I really want some...determined not to put as much weight on this time round; I over-ate massively with ds!

Hellloooo - ooh look at that, a shiny new thread well done vjay
Let's hope we have lots more bfps on this one, I'm sorry curly that AF turned up. Cake and chocolate for you today...
I'm just wolfing down a sandwich and then I'm off to a parents meeting at isaacs school which I found out about last night when he got home. Nothing like a bit of notice....

Well I have tended to all my work emails, stained one of the living room side tables, had lunch, watched one of my Sky+ old episodes of 'thirtysomething', wrapped three pacerls for e-bay... and will go and get Isaac in half an hour...
Not been on for ages, feeling slightly lost just now, not with the thread or anything but the fall out with my friend back in June is still rippling on to the point I'm going to speak to a Counsellor next week as I am unable to move on and need help banishing negative thoughts. My DH has been amazing letting me cry and moan and talk things through but enough is enough I need to get help to help myself.
Anyway, its all a bit 
talking about it on here so will move on...
louey - hope your Isaac comes home dry tonight, mine won't as its tipping down here! How are you finding it all with them being at different schools? Are they missing each other? I am finding homework a challenge to say the least. DS1 is just knackered after 6 hours of concentrating he is always a milli-second away from having a meltdown..
QA can I just state for the record that is was actually Organix tomato snacks not grapes that I fed Benj and I puffed the packet back out so it looked as if it was unopened 
He actually doesn't like grapes . How was bump today?
cupcake - sorry the ms has kicked in but a great, reassuring sign nonetheless. Cheese = savoury = another boy in my book of old wives tales
Gracie - hope you're asthma settles down.
LBM - glad you're OK re: work but it must be a stressful time all round. We're having voluntary severance deals at my work and being in HR we're having to work through them all... 17 month age gap -
MLS - in case you missed my post from old thread, so utterly chuffed for you and have everything crossed. Glad you're having your accup again and remining focused and positive . You need to give me some tips (on being positive not ttc )
Buddha - forgot to say glad you;re feeling better and have a date of E's ear op. Big hand holding needed that day x
4ever bet you are having a bal in Cyprus with your DH and DD. Enjoy every minute and come back tanned x
Right need to shoot and get Isaac. My tactic tonight is no telly til homework, I shall overcome.

Oh a shiny new thread to fill up with lots of bfp's. Calling Moon, Monkey, strawberry...... come & share, good or bad.
MrsKate feeling better?
Thanks Blue, I wish I was always positive but it's usually just after an acu session! Really sorry to hear you've been feeling down - I thought you'd been quiet lately. Not what I like to hear from our resident lovely, plain speaking, wise woman of the Emmsys thread. At least you are doing something about it. {{{hugs}}} Yes I told dh after my first faint bfp last week. His reaction was as underwhelming as I had been expecting!
Curly sorry tew flew in. Focus - today might well be the 1st day of your next pregnancy. I prescribe wine tonight.
Gracie I had loads of steroids when I was pregnant with dd2 (I was hospitalised with pneumonia & other chest complications) & she is fine. Now of course I'm on 6 strong tb-like anti-bacterial drugs every day for the next year and a half which is a worry but my consultant initially said that if I fall pregnant while I'm on these drugs, he would advise me to keep taking them.
Louey how was parents evening?
Cupcake I wish I had symptoms like you. I just get the occasional twinge in the womb area & the odd fizzy nipple. I'm going to do another cb digi tomorrow to make sure it says 'pregnant 3-4'! No I never did get the third star put on, I do plan to but I don't think I"m going to be able to until dd2 (& please please God willing) dc3 are at pre-school.
Not much to report here. I have my gp appt tomorrow to register the pregnancy & beg for a scan. Off in search of a Tunnocks tea-cake now.

Hi all. Just wrote a post and lost it 
Lovely new thread name Vjay. Here's hoping there's nothing but happy posts here. I'll sit in this comfy chair in the corner.
I've been meaning to post for ages. I lurk everyday on my phone and create posts in my head but never type them.
Barbie I hope being wired up wasn't too bad and the results are good. Fingers crossed that things with the move - or not - are sorted soon.
Vjay graet news about scan. i'l be thinking about you on Friday. How's cjay getting on at school now? Oh in case I forget, good luck for your exam when it comes.
Cupcake It is good that the symptoms are kicking in. It's a good sign of a sticky bean. Indulge your cravings too as it's apparently what the baby needs.
Gracie Sorry you're feeling so crappy. Hope you feel better as you move towards the 2nd trimester. Keep your eye on the prize!
MrsKate Hope you're feeling better too and getting to the bottom of what was wrong.
QA I had a huge laugh at the thought of someone at your stage of pregnancy sliding across thefloor. Hope all is well. Glad to hear your DS is getting on well with school.
Louey Glad the DTs are settling in to school. Feel I wanted to say something else bit I can't remember what!
Blue Sorry to hear that you're struggling with stuff with your friend. I hope you get it sorted one way or another soon. It's really hard when you struggle to get closure. I hope you're recovering physically too.
Re homework. What's I getting? M has had lots of sounds, a few words, several stories without words and her first proper reading book. I find it's easier to do homework just before bed at the moment as H is already in bed and she can have my undivided attention. Not sure that will work when she has to write though. 
Curly Sorry to hear about dammned AF 
Here's hoping it's the first day of your pregnancy.
MLS You sound so much more relaxed after accu. Keep that pma and when it slips I'll keep you going.
LBM Sorry to hear about cut backs at work. Glad you're ok though. Are you going to see 'I don't know how she does it'? I'm going on Fri, but when I read the book I thought of you
Monkey Hope things are ok with you and the treatment is going well.
Sabs Hope the fundraising went well. Goregeous pic of Saara btw. She's a stunner! Thanks for passing on the email from Jools too.
Jools If you're lurking, I think about you a lot and often wish for your happy ending. I hope you come back to us one day when you're ready.
4ever Hope you're having a fabby holiday.
Moon Have you had your appointment yet? I have all my fingers and toes crossed that this is your thread.
Strawberry Come back! And bring some bramble vodka. It sounds delicious! Seriously, i really miss you.
OK, think I've caught everyone but apologies if I haven't.

Hello, just marking my place, here's to a happy new thread for us all 
I apologise for not posting very much lately, I feel like I shouldnt be here really, and that's for my own personal reasons, not because of anything you girls have said or done, you've been nothing but my tower of strength over the last couple of years, I just feel like I've been left behind almost in limbo land and that I should be somewhere else. I struggle so much with all the bfps on here, and sometimes reading your heartwarming stories about your dcs is too much for me, and while I am genuinely delighted for each and every one of you, it takes it out of me and I find it extremely difficult to be rational and positive about it all. My sisters baby is absolutely gorgeous and you cant help but love him, but this too hurts like hell and is like a kick in the teeth when you're already down. So I guess I'm saying that at the moment I need some me time, and I wont be posting very often (well not that post often anyway!). But I cant keep away because I need to make sure you are all ok, and because I care about you all, so I'm afraid I'll still be lurking, just not saying very much.
I hope that didnt come across as being needy/ungrateful/selfish and I dont mean to upset anyone, but I felt I needed to explain.
(((((Big hugs to the best girls in the world)))))

Moon Echo what LBM and BQ said.(Hi to both! )When your time comes I'll probably be so happy for you that I'll tell people in RL!! Take care of yourself. It may not feel like it, but I think you're doing brilliantly.

22/09/2011 13:32
:) thanks all re food/weight etc...I will try to give in more
Wouldn't call it ms either...that would be an insult to people like gracie vomiting all day! I just have v mild nausea - so MLS no symptom envy! I'm probably imagining it it's so mild.
But blue- v interesting about the savoury thing. I was all about cheese and olives with ds so could be true... I bet we'll have another boy.
moon massivest of all hugs to you. I so admire you and I really hope that doesnt sound patronising...you're always so honest and brave even though things have been so crap for you. Can't imagine how hard it must be for you with your sister's baby, and with all of us wittering on too... but I agree with MLS please do get support, even if you can't face talking on here...name change and post on other threads, whatever...would just hate to think of you going through stuff alone (with dp though obviously)

Hi lovelies
blue hope you're ok, I kindof understand, my head is in a crap place over dsis. I find it very confusing at times. I don't understand people sometimes, but like you, have a fabulous dh with his head firmly screwed on guiding me . Here's a {{{{{hug}}}}}
moon my heart goes out to you, your post was so honest and I hope it helped just writing it too. Stay strong, because you are you know, even when you don't feel like it, you are, a very strong lady
strawberry I'm going bramble picking again at the weekend so NEED your recipe. I know I could google and get one but I WANT YOURS!!!
Loads more to say but out of time, need to get the dinner on.

That's the colposcopy done, still not sure what it is but she took a biopsy so should know for sure soon. She doesn't think it's anything serious, it could be trauma from ajays birth, which is possible as it was so quick!
just sitting in the carpark now as I feel a bit wobbly. Ajay was a star, he just sat in his buggy, in the corridor eating an apple and watching the nurses working

Just calling in to check on Vjay. pleased to hear it's gone well. Results soon I hope.
Moon a huge hug for you. Please don't go very far away, but I understand your need to keep a low profile.
I saw the midwife on Wednesday. She was a bit stressed that I couldn't speak in sentences due to my shortness of breath and got a Doctor to assess me whilst I was there. On antibiotics for my chest infection too now. Still no better but hoping medications start working soon. My midwife was really nice- the bossy sort you'd want in charge if you were giving birth! My mum has DD for the day so I can rest.

Oh Moon that us just so s**t!! There's no other word for it. Surely they can't move the goal posts on you like that!
Would going back to your Gp for advice help? Can they refer you anywhere else? I'm so angry on your behalf!! March!!!!!
littlebellsmum ·
23/09/2011 19:08
moon I second Gracie, that is seriously seriously unfair.
I also think you should go back to see your GP- there may be some good reasons why they didn't want you to have clomid now but it obviously hasn't been explained and to judt say no today an come back in 6 months, could have serious implications for your mental health. GP on Monday, please young lady.
Or alternatively give us all your consultants address and we'll all get in the barbiemobile and go and have a serious word with him on your behalf
Take care - hon. It will get sorted and you will get your family
